Germany's hope for the future Markus Fothen of Gerolsteiner took the win after he escaped in the finale together with Francisco Pérez. Fothen beat him in a classical sprint-a-deux. The peloton bunch sprint was just behind the two leaders.

Although the course was really difficult, the favourites did not feel like attacking today. And thus, the escapees got their shot at winning a stage. After a win in the Tirreno Adriatico Lampre–Fondital cyclist Matteo Bono added another nice win to his palmares. He held of Japan's Beppu in the sprint. Beppu did score the first Pro Tour points ever for Japan though.

A long break by Lampre–Fondital rider Gorazd Štangelj finished with 8 kilometers to go. By then, Astana's Eddy Mazzoleni upped the pace. He thinned out the group until there were about 15 riders left. Attacks followed by José Ángel Gómez Marchante and Sylwester Szmyd. But the only real successful attack was by Spaniard Igor Antón. Dutch rider Thomas Dekker saw the danger and took over from Mazzoleni. As a result, only five riders could follow. American Predictor–Lotto cyclist Chris Horner attacked with 4 kilometers to go. Dekker replied instantly and with much pain and suffering also Frenchman John Gadret managed to follow. The trio caught up with Anton, who was happy he could sit in last wheel and follow. Although Dekker made the strongest impression and tried to get away twice, it was Anton who took the win. Dekker disputed the win due to a seemingly irregular sprint by Anton. But his protest was denied.

In the finishing time trial around Lausanne Thomas Dekker didn't allow his competitors to have any hopes of winning the Tour de Romandie. Only Astana riders Paolo Savoldelli and Andrey Kashechkin stayed somewhat in the vicinity of Dekker. The young Dutch hope of winning the Tour de France in the future did a triple strike by winning the time trial, the final general classification and the points classification.
